Help! Groom's parents are long divorced. Father has been remarried for 7 years and groom has largely been raised and supported by father--(father is the only parent contributing to the wedding costs.) Mother has a live-in boyfriend. Under these circumstances isn't it appropriate for father to be seated in front row? (since he feels he has earned this honor)---Father has made it clear that mother and boyfriend can also sit in front row. Wedding a a few days!!!!
